Altenew Beautiful Day - Take Two!

Thank you for all your kind thoughts about my gammy neck. I'm pleased to report that whilst still painful, it is settling down and seems to be a much quicker recovery compared to the last time I had it done in September fortunately.
I threatened you with a second card made from my leftover bits from the Altenew Beautiful Day set and so here it is! I used a 6x6 card blank and the sentiment banner is years old, I think from the days when Lakeland had a craft catalogue. Very simples!
Gratuitous bunny photos coming up. Willow has been quite subdued since Parsley passed away, but is starting to return to her cheeky self now. She's having a precautionary course of medication and will then be spayed and then we can look for a new friend for her. She's very good and will eat her medication if I squirt it onto a fenugreek crunchie for her as you can see in the picture below,. She's also sporting some interesting moult lines!
Actually getting a photo of Willow is very tricky as she doesn't sit still, so I just end up with a lot of blurred grey photos. I did manage to get a couple of shots as she tried to escape from the run though. She still loves a good fuss and has the softest fur of any bunny I've owned. She now weighs 1.3kg and so is always going to be a smaller bunny but with a big personality.

  1. Another gorgeous card using these lovely stamps. Lakeland used to get some lovely items in their craft department. It was a shame they stopped selling craft supplies. Glad your neck is making a good recovery. Love the photos of Willow. xx

  9. Hi Cara, your bunny is so cute and hope you find her a friend soon. I had to smile when you mentioned the Lakeland Craft stuff as I still have some and in fact got a really nice fold up craft table from there too. I did ask them why they stopped selling the craft stuff but they seemed to think that it didn't fit with their image, can't think why. Lovely card too, they are so clever those stamps. Have a lovely creative week, Angela xxx

  14. This is such a beautiful card Cara, I can't believe you fussy cut it out, you have the patience of a saint. Love the pics of Willow, she's gorgeous! Glad that your Christmas card FINALLY arrived. At least it arrived..some did not make it. It happens every year, I think that USPS and Royal Mail they conspire to make me look bad. Cx
